POLYMER PRICES Standard Thermoplastics Trend March 2016: Olefin notations gradually stabilise / Diverging price movements / Rise in SM contract drives styrenics up / Firming tendency	14.03.2016
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene February 2016: Concessions match cost relief / Special offers and imports drive demand / Compound prices adjusted / Early Easter holiday will dampen March demand	03.03.2016
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene February 2016: Most price cuts exceed the cost reduction / Decline in pipe grades also greater than the C2 fall / Orders pick up amid expectations that notations will bottom out soon / Stabilisation likely in March	03.03.2016
POLYMER PRICES PVC February 2016: Producers pass on almost the entire ethylene cost decline / Previous price levels unsustainable / Demand weaker than expected / Lack of imports and several turnarounds expected to result in stability for March	03.03.2016
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics February 2016: Notations give way across the board / Declines do not always equal the cost reduction / Material availability suffices to meet demand / Notations likely to turn around in March	03.03.2016
POLYMER PRICES Standard Thermoplastics Trend February 2016: Most cost reductions factored in / Declines for PVC somewhat more restrained / Battles over additional price cuts will characterise the rest of the month	12.02.2016
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene January 2016: Declines exceed the cost reduction / Market moves towards surplus / Imports pressure / Notations likely to slide further in February	03.02.2016
